Script here is specifically to be used with old Electrum, around version 3.0 as in description.
Note: use this script instead if you are getting the following error when opening your wallet file:
WalletFileException("Your wallet has an unsupported seed version: 14.\n\nTo open this wallet, try 'git checkout seed_v14'")(that script is for modern Electrum)
